The line has to be drawn somewhere, is the problem.
The current line is that the vote was accepted by the time that the ballots were counted, and I don’t think you should move the line simply because it’s a close race.
Then you cannot rely on mail in ballots because sometimes mail gets lost. Really if you want to make sure that every vote must count, no exceptions, then you have to design a new method of absentee voting.
The moment that a ballot has left the voter’s possession, it needs to be tracked and kept securely like we do at my local polling place, or else there’s no way to count every vote, no exceptions. So we need something extra for absentee or mail-in ballots.

Every vote must count, no exceptions.
Once the candidate cedes the election, the total doesn’t affect the race. THE CANDIDATE QUIT.
